GP Austria, here is the starting grid

After Sprint Race which immediately saw a very close fight between Verstappen's Red Bull and the two McLarens, now it's time to get back on track for the Austrian GP. So let's see the starting grid of the Austrian GP which will start at 15:00 pm.

McLaren tries, but Max doesn't give up

The Dutchman demonstrated his superiority once again, leading his direct rival, Lando Norris, who will join him on the front row, by four tenths. Norris' McLaren is increasingly competitive, but this time it seems to have something less than Verstappen's RB20. However, it is interesting to see a challenge between Norris and Verstappen again, just as we saw it in Spain but reversed. In fact, it will not be Norris who will start in front but Max, determined to bring a landslide victory to Red Bull's home circuit. Immediately behind Max and Lando we do not find Oscar Piastri whose time was canceled for having exceeded the track limits, but George Russell's Mercedes. Russell, with his Mercedes W15, achieved an excellent third position, narrowly overtaking Carlos Sainz. The Ferrari driver will therefore start from fourth position, followed by Russell's teammate, Lewis Hamilton. Charles Leclerc, after an error in the last flying lap, he will start sixth, alongside Hamilton.

Perez still in difficulty, Hulkenberg and Ocon reach the top 10

The remaining part of the grid sees Sergio Perez starting in eighth position. The Mexican continues to struggle with his Red Bull. Behind him, we find Nico Hülkenberg and Esteban Ocon of Alpine, who complete the top-10. Daniel Ricciardo, just out of Q2, will start eleventh, followed by Kevin Magnussen and Pierre Gasly, the latter relegated for exceeding track limits. Fernando Alonso will start only fifteenth, followed by his Aston Martin teammate, Lance Stroll. At the rear, the Williams and the Saubers close the grid, with Alex Albon sixteenth, followed by Logan Sargeant 19th and the Sauber drivers, Valtteri Bottas and Guanyu Zhou, who will start from Pit Lane after breaking parc fermé to change set up.

The starting grid of the Austrian GP

The Austrian Grand Prix promises to be a spectacle, with a starting grid that sees heated challenges both in the front rows and in the mid-table.
